Garden Thursday
Hi Virginger here, trying to keep warm. Our early and warm spring has gone and it is down right cold overnight outside. I have been snuggling inside the metal monster room at night to stay warm.
Our red twigged dogwood is just barely showing its leaves. Same thing for the grape vine. Things have really slowed down after revving up so fast.
Mum and I looked back at last years Garden Thursday posts. We didn't even do our first Garden Thursday post until April 21, that is when the garden guys came with the mulch. The daffy-dils were just getting opened too and we had snow flurries. On April 28 the four-cith-ia was just opening, as were the hiya-cinths. Mum said we got spoiled by the super nice weather last month.
I join the boys in sending out huge healing purrs to PrancerPie and Princess. They both have sick tummies. Get better you two!
That is all for now, stay warm!
Love, Virginger

We have had the same weather as you. That lovely warm weather we had a few weeks ago really spoilt us huh? Mummy went out into the countryside the other day and said it was definitely looking greener. Pawsies crossed for some sun soon :)xx
ReplyDeleteWe're having chilly weather too, so not much is happening in our tiny garden either. Another few weeks, once we get into May!
ReplyDeleteWe have only had a few warm days this year...meaning the temps got into the 60's. Can we form a purr circle and purr for warm and sunny weather?
ReplyDeletePurrs,

Our Minnesota apple crop was threatened with the frost this week. The tender buds have just opened.
ReplyDeleteIt is cool, but sunny & green and that makes up for a lot! Snow is just too depressing.
Warm spring weather has a way of spoiling you, and thinking you can garden early.
ReplyDeleteHope you staying warm, Virginger.
Stay warm to you too! We actually finally had some sun shine! I hope it sticks around!
ReplyDeleteOur weather has been cold too...frost warnings at night.
ReplyDeleteOur red-twigged dogwood is leafed out, but not so compact and twigged as yours. Its a bit sprawley. You have a real good one!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday the 13th and have a fun weekend, sweet friends=hope it warms up for you guys!...xoxo...Calle, Halle, Sukki
ReplyDeleteWe got spoiled by the warm weather too, but really, this colder weather is more the norm for this time of year.
ReplyDeleteOur plants (and people) are all confused by the weather here in Indiana. I'm glad we're not the only weird weather place!
